Advantages of SSD VPS vs non-SSD VPS in hosting a web application

SSD stands for Solid State Drives. With SSD based server, access time of websites, databases, E Commerce applications speeds up significantly. When a visitor is on the lookout for information on a specific topic and in case it is not available at one address, they will shift and search at some other place. It takes few seconds for the user to close the opened tab and move on to next one. If your potential customer have to wait for their much needed information, it is not useful. To speed up your website, it is time to go for web hosting with SSD than the traditional VPS Hosting. SSD offers best performance, more power and extremely low access time compared to Traditional SATA HDD. Preference goes to SSD for bringing speed factor & reliability in web hosting. Here we will discuss several of the advantages of SSD Web Hosting.

1. Faster Web Hosting Speed:
Traditional HHD (hard disk drive) have electromechanical moving parts to store data. That means that every time a visitors accesses your website or opens a page, the server disk takes time to spin to locate the information which can leads to some delay. The delay only takes a few milliseconds to access data, but you can clearly feel it when coming with a heavy load of activities on websites with a large number of visitors.

SSD hosting, equipped with SSDs, has a significant improvement on web hosting speed. As SSD is a flash storage device that has no moving mechanical components, there is no mechanical movement every time data needs to be accessed in SSD hosting, which leads SSD hosting being faster than traditional web hosting when it comes to response time.

2. Great Data Transfer Speed:
Moving parts in HDD slow down drive performance and since SSD has no moving parts within it, the data transfer is extremely fast. With more disk space, a high traffic site can host multiple images, videos and handle incoming traffic more efficiently

3. No cooling needed:
SSDs do not need any cooling as there is no heat generated within it. With traditional HDD Drives there is a possibility of reduced lifespan when there is a drastic change in temperate. SSD drives are not affected by this.

4. Stability and Reliability:
SSD does not skip any data during data encryption or during the decryption process in order to ensure that every single piece of information is safe.

With Microchip technology, SSD can withstand the test in this competitive market. SSDs are more reliable than HDD because SSDs are highlighted for less power usage, no heat generation, high durability and no need for fragmentation. All these features means that with SSD hosting there is less chance to damage the drives and of loss of data.

5. Durability:
Solid State Drives have microchip technology with more durability. This technology increases the longevity of the drive, reducing repairing cost of drive.
